It’s clear from the comments many people are not happy with the music. Great. No need for the negative comments. Put the video on mute and turn your own favorite music on. Problem solved!
Cheers from Padre Island Texas , been a live aboard for 40 YEARS !!! 3 Sail 1 Sport Fisherman all 38 footers ( a bunch of European Sports Cars and Surfer Girls as well LOL ) we are day sailors , back to the Yacht Club at night to jump in the pool , hot tub and grill the catch of the day ... Epic footage and Voyage ... wishing y'all fair winds and a following sea from the Tex / Mex Caribe !!!
Andy Orr. Hello and good morning. Thank you so much for this video. Sailing a Tall Ship is something that like being a concert pianist or flying is something that I've long dreamed of. My only sailing experience has been a 32' Sloop on Lake Erie. That was just enough to whet my appetite. this video was truly lovely and the Europa will haunt my dreams for weeks to come. Again my sincere thanks for the opportunity to vicariously live at least one unrequited dream. All the best to you. Fair winds and trailing seas.
Thank you so much for your kind words! That’s great you got to sail on one of the Great Lakes. I’ve always wanted to do that as well. Tons of sailing history in those lakes. I used to dive Lake Michigan often on the shipwrecks and they’re quite the thing to see.
I think the comments on the music are from the haters...they wished they were on this amazing journey. I saw the entire video and never once thought about the soundtrack. Just admiring the beautiful scenes. Thanks for producing and uploading for all of us to enjoy. Kudos!
@@aorr You're very welcome Andy! It's a great travel vlog you put together. Our family is doing an Antarctica cruise with Silversea's Silver Wind expedition ship next February. It will not be nearly as exciting and adventurous as your experience with the Europa. However, I do plan to do some tall ship experiences with either Star Clippers or the Sea Cloud first and then "graduate" to the Europa in a few years.
Complimenti per la conduzione del veliero, al suo capitano Eric K. e tutto l'equipaggio! Complimenti a chi ha fatto i video spettacolari! Bravi tutti quanti per l'impresa!!!
Lovely film. I actually love the music fits the visuals perfectly. Who are the musicians? Just brilliant. Greetings from the "Viking realm" of Flamborough
Hello Henry - thank you! Credit to the musician can be seen in the opening credits as well as the end of the video credits: Antti Martikainen (www.anttimartikainen.com). Glad you like his beautiful music and I agree that it seemed to fit well with the trip and footage.
Wow beautifully done I just enjoyed every moment. I miss workin on sailing ships,an Tug boats an what ever if get me arse aboard an sailing.......lol!!!Thanks so much
I wish I had the chance to work on board a sail ship. I did work at sea, however it was cruise ships that I worked on, mostly as a photographer. I did have the chance to photograph some gorgeous sail ships.
Beautiful footage! And excellent soundtrack choice aswell! Going to Antarktica in a ship for shure already is quiet an adventure. But doing it in a bark from 1911 is even cooler!
Mate, you've made a beautiful film. Well done and thank you. And congratulations. I work on ships and in Cape Town Harbour, and somewhere I have a few pictures of Europa in drydock in Cape Town from this voyage. I always get a thrill when I see a sailing ship in Cape Town....somehow the masts and rigging just look 'right' against the backdrop of the mountain, and I look forward to the day when the port is full of masts again. A beautiful film and thank you.
Andy you seem to answer some questions thanks I was curious about cooking in rough weather and also does a sailing vessel stay at an angle in a constant wind ? So the cooking is also leaning or to cook you take down the sails? Sorry thanks for being patient with my ignorance?
@@jamesrogers8501 Sorry for so tardy a response - yes, indeed, I have seen Picton Castle in cape Town. She was alongside and it looked like the mate was supervising the rebuilding of a broken topmast or boom or some sort of spar. Hand tools on deck, elbow grease, sweat....the old way. Impressive....
Just stunning every bit of it what an adventure planet earth would do well to match the filming on this what a treasure to have been part of it thanks for sharing
Awesome footage - fantastic editing. Nothing compares to #tallship sailing. In 2018 I crewed on the barque, Elissa, out of Galveston Tx. Learned so much about tallship, square sailing......and myself.
beautiful footage... great music to boot... really great vid... very well done & i reallyyyy felt that ccccold in the Antarctica... was wonderin' how many ppl were on the Europa & then saw all of 'em at the end of vid... curious.. where did everybody sleep... how much food didja take aboard & where were u able to refuel at... how many miles were u able 2 go on a full refuel... how long were yall on the trip... wut kinda problems didja have while on the water... so many questions so little time.... so glad 2 see the safety net there also... yall looked like u absolutely enjoyed the trip... thanx fer sharin' this awesome trip... take care.... ♪♫♪
Thank you, @MonaLisa Smiles! If I remember right, there were about 43 or so guests, and about 12 crew that stay with the ship. There is a low crew count because all the passengers help sail the ship on the trip. Four hours on, four off. Rinse and repeat. For sleeping, there are very nice bunks in the ship. I had four roommates, but others had two people to a room, or three, or four. For food, we used 80kg sugar, 60kg rice, 20kg potato chips, 180 hamburgers, 100kg chicken, 125kg beef, 160kg cheese, 2100 eggs, 700kg potatoes, 100kg apples, 60kg bananas, 120kg oranges, 500kg flour and a bunch more! Since it is a sailboat, we didn't use the diesel engines too often. We actually had a number of days without much wind so we used the engines more than some trips, but mostly they were used for working between icebergs. We didn't take on any fuel during the trip. We were on the trip for 52 days. No major problems during the voyage. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great footage but I could have done without the dramatic foreground music! The sound of the sea, and the wind, though somewhat muffled, would have been great.
A barque, also spelled bark, is a style of tall ship with two or more square-rigged masts and a fore/aft rigged mast in the stern of the ship. It is interesting they refer to the ship as the Bark Europa but I think that might just be because it has a great sound to it. But the proper name of the ship is only Europa.
@Buddy Van Spankeren i think "BARQUE" is actually French . And I don't get "OF" my high horse , I get "OFF" it . So get " off" your arrogant Dutch horse and learn yourself .
Beautiful film - awful music. My son Sune sailed with bark Europe in 2002 - 2003 from the Falkland Islands to Ushuaia, South Pole, Ushuaia, Cap Verde and ended at the Azores half a year later. He went out as a boy and came home as a man.
very inspiring. excellent music. I want to go! Follow the pink elephant to his lair in Antarctica, harpoon him and ate him! While gazing on the Southern Cross! Bucket list!
Gorgeous photography and documentation but the overly dramatic music when not sailing and while looking at penguins, seals and sea lions and ducks does not fit. Too artificial and distracting.

The music matches the video perfectly :) I love it!
@@cyberp0et Thanks! That was my hope!
Great music, very atmospheric.
I don't see what the problem is .... quality? type of music? I don't get it!
btw how much was ur trip?.. 20k???
@@aorr as someone who does prefer no music. The music choice was actually perfect. Where did you find it?

Great video man! fuck all these negative comments! I want to book a trip on The Europa one day too, for that old world experience!
Peace!
Классное видео ;)
Just imagine sailing 150 years ago. The ocean would be teeming with all sorts of life.
Andy. I agree with you that tall ship sailing changes lives.
Absolutely!! What an amazing thing to do.
So this is where our memories go after our death
How does one get involved with doing it?
Ringo 1 check out www.barkeuropa.com
Bellissimo!
I was first officer on a 250 t 45 m tall ship part time and full time for over 9 years.
BLUE DOG , work as a ferry boat Captain but don’t like it.
I mist out on buying a 60/70 wooden schooner .
BLUE DOG thief I’ve read the name of the wind

16:37 There's an easy way to do that with one hand in about 5 seconds, used to do it rock climbing.
Great footage but I could have done without the dramatic foreground music! The sound of the sea, and the wind, though somewhat muffled, would have been great.
I agree.
@@davidwaynechoate8059 So do I.
Greetings Andy, would you be related to Dr Jane Orr who is a member of the Cape Horners (IACH)?
Alas, I am not. :-( While sailing does run in the family I don’t believe I have any relatives by the name of Jane.
Andy, is bark the name or type of vessel? I have heard of Barques, but wonder why anyone would use this as a of name.
Slight correction, delete the of before name.
A barque, also spelled bark, is a style of tall ship with two or more square-rigged masts and a fore/aft rigged mast in the stern of the ship. It is interesting they refer to the ship as the Bark Europa but I think that might just be because it has a great sound to it. But the proper name of the ship is only Europa.
Tall ships require climbing the rigging in a storm while everything coated in ice. Not so sweet.
A beautiful movie, when you turn off the music.
10:11 On every good party there's that one extrovert guy wearing a leather coat.
Johannes hahahaha! This made me laugh. Nicely done!
What is streaking across the screen in frame 5:51?
Possibly birds. I sped the footage up at this point so it's hard to say exactly. Maybe UFOs!
I wonder how much that trip was? 20k???
Not quite that high. It is actually a pretty affordable way to visit Antarctica. I forget the exact amount, but around 12-13k.
@@aorr wow Antarctica and south africa .... 12 to 13k ... good but expensive way to get my son off the internet lol and see what soon might be gone...
Bark grows on trees . Barques sail at sea .
@Buddy Van Spankeren i think "BARQUE" is actually French . And I don't get "OF" my high horse , I get "OFF" it . So get " off" your arrogant Dutch horse and learn yourself .
Those scenes in wide angle format wreck part of the documentary. Pity .

Beautiful film - awful music. My son Sune sailed with bark Europe in 2002 - 2003 from the Falkland Islands to Ushuaia, South Pole, Ushuaia, Cap Verde and ended at the Azores half a year later. He went out as a boy and came home as a man.
very inspiring. excellent music. I want to go! Follow the pink elephant to his lair in Antarctica, harpoon him and ate him! While gazing on the Southern Cross! Bucket list!
Sorry, the music ruins this, let's hear natural sounds.
Turn off music 🎶! Mike from Missouri
OMG this music is awful but the video's great.. Watch with the sound off.
Gorgeous photography and documentation but the overly dramatic music when not sailing and while looking at penguins, seals and sea lions and ducks does not fit. Too artificial and distracting.
LOUSY MUSIC DETIORTATING SUPERB MOVIE
Awful overbearing music
This looks like it could've been worth a watch, too bad about the 'orrible choices made with the soundtrack. God awfull.
Overly dramatic much?
Gary Myers Jealous much?
Andy Orr not even a little bit. I prefer modern boats.
@@garymyers6638 So why did you watch 20 minutes of an old one?
What a loser
